We use both a Giemsa and a Toluidine Blue (latter less often) for mast cells.

Subject: [Histonet] stain for mast cells
We have been using an alcian blue stain at pH 0.4 to demonstrate mast cells. Our pathologist would like to use a giemsa stain for mast cells. If someone knows a good stain for mast cells could you let me know. Either a giemsa stain or any other type would be appreciated.
